The three changes are:

The demand for poultry, cheese, soups, bakery products, and fruits will increase, while demand for fresh milk, beef, eggs, and processed vegetables will decrease.
2 . Changing attitudes will probably further reduce the role of the traditional family meal.
3 . The growth in demand for food in the U.S. will slow because of slowing population growth and modest increase in real income and likely slow decline in relative price of food.
